In MS word 2013 (using gdrive picture).
If you want to add an email but you don't want to update the image (when the hosted email will change) go to insert
tab, click on pictures
, simply past the url of your image in the filename field and press insert
.
If you want the picture to be updated go to insert tab, click on pictures
, simply past the url of your image in the filename field but instead of pressing insert
, chose (in the menu under insert
) insert and link
(or link to file
. Both will work).
To update a gdrive file, just drop the new version on the new one. Google will ask you if you want to keep separate, let it go, by default it will update the old one.
How to update/refresh a linked picture in the docx?. Select the picture and refresh by pressing F9
.
PS: the gdrive file must be public (not private), the URL must be like:
https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=<file_ID_here!>
(I tried other URLs wich did not work)
